The Aquabats are a musical ensemble from Huntington Beach, California formed in 1994 known for their humorous lyrics and outrageous live shows, during which the band is often attacked by supervillains onstage.  Starting as a parody of the booming third-wave ska scene in Southern California (their first show, reportedly, was played with fourteen members, at least half of which were wielding horns), The Aquabats played third-wave ska with surf guitar sounds and b-movie inspired lyrics.

The Aquabats (often written as The Aquabats!) are an American rock band formed in 1994 in Huntington Beach, California and currently recording for Nitro Records. They have released four full-length studio albums and have toured internationally. They are best known for their mythology, in which they claim to be superheroes on a quest to save the world from evil through music. As a part of this mythology the band members have adopted superhero pseudonyms and dress in matching costumes.

The Aquabats sind eine US-amerikanische Band aus Süd-Kalifornien, die 1995 gegründet wurde. Die Band ist speziell durch ihre sehr farbenfrohen Auftritte in Superheldenkostümen bekannt geworden.  Bandgeschichte  Am Anfang ihrer Karriere spielte die Band eine Mischung aus Ska und Surf-Rock. Im Laufe der Jahre (vor allem nach dem zweiten Album) entfernte sie sich jedoch immer weiter vom Ska. Besonders die Bläser wurden durch Synthesizer ersetzt, da die Gruppe immer mehr mit elektronischer Musik zu experimentieren begann. 

Los enmascarados, menospreciados campeones del nerd-core, The Aquabats! comenzarón con 14 integrantes en 1995, explorando los terrenos del ska-punk de un modo mas que divertido y demostrando su furia en vivo. Originarios de Orange County no pueden ser clasificados en un género musical en específico, mas que como The Aquabats!   ¿Porqué los disfraces? Criados por la television y para entretenerse y luego entretener a la audiencia los Aquabats crearon el concepto de ser superheroes de una isla llamada Aquabania...

You want to splash in the sea green planet
And let the world go
Just let the birds go, birds go

To pass along imagination
Before you're gone
And your life slips away
So write this story with me..

C                                   Dm
Nothing, let's talk about something else
                             Bm
Can't see myself with anyone else
                        C                    Bm
Please, oh please let's talk about something else

C             Am        Dm
She can't see me, but I can
          G                C
I guess I am the invisible man
          Am              Dm
She can't see, what could be
        G
Nothing hurts worse than being nothing
C               Am
  The invisible man

Nothing's worse than turning into


Verse 2
C           Am           Dm
Once upon a time she was fine
             G
And all good people knew her name
C             Am                    Dm
I was from outside where all the animals and
        G
All the trees were happy
C                  Am            Dm
 What's wrong? I'm standing over here
              G                    C
It's just too weird that she can't see me
               Am              Dm
It's as if she waved her magic wand
            G              C
And somehow turned me into nothing

The Story Of Nothing

D Em A D

[Verse]
D                                      Em 
As one sits and waits for something to happen
A                                D   
I too, sat and waited for you to call
       D                                                  Em 
Well I waited too long and I thought, "Hey, maybe I should call you."
A                           D 
But by then you had already gone.

[Chorus]
                 A                                 
Whoa, whoa. It's Friday night, I wanted to go out
D
I didn't want to go to no show.
A                          
Didn't wanna cruise main street 
D
I didn't wanna go to no disco. 
          G                       A              
No, no. I just wanted you to come over, 
          D                 G
sit on my couch and hold me tight,
    G                      A      
But you went out with some dumb jock 
             D
and left me alone with my skateboard tonight


D Em A D

[Verse]
D                                  Em
Now I'm out with my skateboard and pushin' so hard, I'm pushin' so hard.
A                                        D
I wanna see if I can see if you're still home

But the lights weren't on and you were gone
   D                                  Em
So on my way home alone I took a shortcut through the park
    A
And just my luck, I saw you sitting in his truck
         D
You were making out with him in the dark

[Chorus]
                 A                                 
Whoa, whoa. It's Friday night, I wanted to go out

I didn't wanna go to no disco.

No, no. I just wanted you to come over, 
          D                 G
sit on my couch and hold me tight,
    G                      A      
But you went out with some dumb jock

D                Em 
Why'd you go and change your mind
A
You can pick and choose 

But with him you're gonna lose
      D
Every ti-ti-ti-ti-time

[Chorus]

Cause the only place that I want to be is right back home with you 


Verse 3:
                 C	             Am		
I guess there's so much more I have to learn
               F	 	                       G		
But if you're here with me, I know which way to turn
        Am         F		                   C
You always give me somewhere, somewhere I can run
Am	            G	       F   C
   You make it real for me

Am      C              F              C
I had a dream, we were sipping whisky neat
        F              C                 G
Highest floor, the Bowery, and nowhere’s high enough
    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye
         F               C           G
You were staying out all night and I had enough


      F           Am             F                    C       
No, I don't wanna know where you been or where you're goin’
      F               Am                 G
But I know I won't be home and you'll be on your own


            F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning?
            F                 C                 G
Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?
             F                C               G         E7   Am
Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?
             F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning, it ain’t me


Am        C              G         F   
Ow-ow, ah-ah the Bowery, ow-ow, ah-ah whiskey neat
Am          C       G         G
Where y’go, I’m so, grateful, I (it ain’t me)

Am  C  Am       C              F           C
       I had a dream, we were back to seventeen
       F                   C            G
Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories
        F              C                G
But you know I'm gonna leave behind the worst of us


             F                    C                G

             F                 C                 G

School Friends

Verse 1:
G                                    Em        G        Em
There was a girl who lived in London town.
G                                 Em                   G      Em
The scenes and sounds, they would only bring her down
C                                   D
She had polkadots and rubies in her dreams,
C                   D
French fantasies on cinema screens...
        C             G/B    Am     G
And she knew from the finish to the start
C      G/B      Am   G
It was bound to fall apart
C         G/B     Am   Em
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.
Em                                D
Wouldn't it be sweet if she could die from a broken heart?

G     Em      G      Em

Verse 2: (the same chords)
There was a boy who lived inside his head.
He couldn't face the world, so he turned his back instead.
He couldn't see in front of his eyes;
His fantasies of outlaws had him hypnotised...

And he knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                        F
Wouldn't it be sweet if he could die from a broken heart?

   C              G           F
Behold his golden wings
       C              G         F
And behold his bronze bow.
                 C             G         F
Can you hear his silver arrows sing?
       C               G     
As his gaylied favours glow.

(then go back to the normal verse bit)

There was a boy and girl who fell in love:
They both were in love with the stars and sky above,
Cinderella, cigarettes and scenes from the past
Were chasing them too fast for this love to ever last...

And they knew from the finish to the start
It was bound to fall apart
Thanks to Cupid's lazy dart.                         F
Wouldn't it be sweet if they could die from a broken heart? 

C   G    F    C    G

Repeat F  C  G until the end. End on G.

Arrows Of Eros

Am
There's a sadness all around us
          F                         C
There are words we're too afraid to say
                                        Am
The things that I thought would last forever
    F              G
Are changing every day

          Am
There's a hunger can't be satisfied
        F                       C
And the streets are filled with rage
C                       Am
It's time to dig deep inside ourselves
F                       G
And face the life we've made

Am
It's gonna take two of us
C                           Am
Ijust can't do it all on my own
F				  C
I see the day gettin' brighter
G                    F
Hold me a little bit tighter

C                      Am      F
Out of the darkness in hand in hand
     Am               F        G
Baby together we will make our stand
C                             Am      F
Reach out and touch me we can win somehow
       Am              F                G
I know there's nothing that can stop us now
F              Am                 G   C
Oh, baby, come with me out of the darkness
